The 2018 Chevrolet Traverse comes equipped with a 9-speed automatic transmission paired with its 3.6L V6 engine, offering wide gear spacing for both fuel efficiency and highway cruising comfort. Some owners have reported concerns with rough or hesitant shifting, particularly during low-speed acceleration and downshifts — often addressed through GM software updates and transmission fluid changes. Dexron HP is the recommended fluid for this unit. When replacing the transmission, ensure the replacement unit is properly programmed to the vehicle's control modules. Remanufactured 9-speed units provide a dependable, warrantied path to restoring smooth, confident performance in your Traverse. link hidden, please login to view -

The 2014 Chevy Spark transmission is a key component that determines how smoothly this compact car performs in city and highway driving. It came equipped with either a 5-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission (CVT), offering drivers excellent flexibility. Common issues include hesitation during acceleration and occasional slipping. Low fluid levels are often the root cause of these problems. Regular maintenance checks can extend its lifespan significantly and help avoid expensive repairs down the road.

SAF-Holland has launched BrakeSight, a brake monitoring system for Haldex air disc brakes that provides continuous, real-time visibility into wear at the wheel end. The company said the system targets fleets seeking more predictable brake service intervals and streamlined repair planning.
SAF-Holland said BrakeSight helps fleets schedule brake service at the optimal moment, extend rotor life, avoid unnecessary repairs and reduce overall maintenance costs.
How BrakeSight Brake Monitoring Works
BrakeSight is an optional feature for the Haldex ModulT air disc brake. As the adjustment mechanism rotates to compensate for pad and rotor wear, the system monitors this movement and translates it into a percentage of remaining pad and rotor life at each wheel end.
The sensor connects to a frame-mounted electronic control unit (ECU), which converts the signal and outputs real-time data via CAN. Designed for both tractor and trailer air disc brakes, BrakeSight is J1939 compliant and compatible with all telematics platforms. SAF-Holland works with telematics providers selected by the fleet and offers open integration without exclusive partnerships.
Built for Real-World Fleet Conditions
SAF-Holland said BrakeSight combines durability with ease of use. Features include:
Continuous measurement of brake pad wear; Ultrasonically welded sensor housing for long-term durability; IP6K9K sealing for harsh road and wash-down environments; Sensor warranty of 3 years or 350,000 miles, matching ABS coverage; Operating temperature range from -40 C to 125 C. Because all ModulT air disc brake calipers include the sensor mounting feature as standard, OEMs and fleets can add BrakeSight at any stage without replacing the caliper. This supports flexibility throughout the vehicle life cycle.
By providing real-time insight into brake wear, the system helps fleets create more accurate maintenance schedules, reduce unplanned downtime and protect brake components. The company positioned this as a way to lower total cost of ownership and improve uptime.

The 2006 Chevy Silverado transmission is a critical component for one of America's most dependable full-size trucks. The 2006 Silverado used either a 4L60-E four-speed automatic or the heavy-duty 4L80-E, depending on engine configuration and towing package. The 4L60-E is the most common unit and the one most frequently replaced due to solenoid failures, torque converter issues, and third-gear clutch wear particularly on trucks that hauled heavy loads or towed frequently throughout their service life.
When sourcing a replacement 2006 Silverado transmission, confirm your engine size and towing package code from your VIN. They determine which transmission unit is correct. A quality used 4L60-E or 4L80-E with under 80,000 documented miles, shift-tested across all ranges, and covered by a minimum 12-month warranty is the most cost-effective replacement path available for Silverado owners today.
